Urodynamic findings and long-term outcome management of patients with multiple sclerosis-induced lower urinary tract dysfunction.

We studied urodynamically 46 patients between 20 and 74 years old with multiple sclerosis and uncomfortable bladder symptoms. The response to treatment was recorded during a followup of 1 to 10 years (mean 3 1/2 years). Lack of response to appropriate therapy predicated on urodynamic testing appeared to be related to progression of multiple sclerosis.
